Question

Mention two organisms that reproduce asexually by spore formation.

Answer 1

Spore Formation:

The mode of asexual reproduction where multicellular organisms produce offspring by dispersing spores is called spore formation. The dispersed spores develop into a new organism during favourable conditions.

The organisms that reproduce asexually by spore formation are as follows:

1. Rhizopus: The spore sacs formed by Rhizopus comprise spore cells that can easily disperse through the air.
2. Chlamydomonas: The spores of the Chlamydomonas are called zoospores, and they disperse through water.
